1. CHOOSE YOUR APARTMENT: Have a look at the available apartments on our website and choose the apartment that meets your preferences. You can select several options.

2. MAKE AN APPOINTMENT: To make an appointment, fill out the contact form. We’ll contact you for an introductory meeting and give you, if possible, a tour of the apartment. Also, we’ll be able to answer any of your questions and explain the (construction) process.

3. SIGN THE LEASE: You have chosen an apartment. Now we’re able – after all the documents are complete – to draw up the lease and have you sign the rental agreement.

4. PICK UP THE KEY: You’ve made it! You’re receiving the key!! Together we can set a date when you can move into your apartment. On this day, the property manager will explain the important information about the apartment and we’ll inspect the apartment together. Everything will be registered in the handover report.

Conditions

There are certain conditions to rent an apartment. To be eligible for the apartment, we need to request a few documents: proof of income/employment contract and an ID. If your income is not sufficient, it is possible for you to have someone else stand in as guarantor who has adequate income. The property management may refuse any candidate at any time without giving the reason.

Costs

If you’re going to rent an apartment we don’t charge you any costs. You only pay 1 month rent (equivalent to the full rental price) as deposit. The first month rent and the security deposit must be received by the landlord before you move into the apartment. You will receive the deposit back at the end of the rental period if the apartment is in good condition.

Short stay

Several accommodations can be rented for either short stay or long stay. Short stay means renting a temporary, fully furnished, accommodation for a contract period shorter than 1 year. For short stay accommodations the landlord charges a so called ‘’all-in’’ rental price, which means that facilities such as gas, water, electricity, internet, tv and local taxes are already included in the price.

Short stay is only suitable for residents who will be staying in Eindhoven or surroundings for a short period of time, such as expats or inhabitants of the Netherlands who need to temporarily relocate to Eindhoven based on projects or short term employment contracts.

Rental periods over 1 year are called ‘’long stay’’. These accommodations are mostly soft furnished (without furniture but including, floors, curtains and sometimes even lights) because residents will bring their own furniture and can choose their own GWE suppliers.
